Alright, Rusty here, breaking down what’s happening at Jaconé for the next couple of weeks.
We’re starting slow, real slow. Thursday the 2nd and Friday the 3rd only have tiny 2ft swells with glassy mornings, but the energy is weak. It’s rideable, but just average. Saturday the 4th picks up a bit to 3-4ft from the S, but the wind is messy and cross-onshore, making it choppy.
Sunday the 5th is a total write-off. Rain and strong onshore winds blow out a 8ft swell. Don’t bother.
Monday the 6th is the first real bright spot. A clean 6ft S swell with glassy conditions in the morning. The energy is solid. Tuesday the 7th morning is also a gem – a clean 3ft S groundswell with a long 16-second period and light offshore wind. That’s a beautiful setup for a point break, though it might straighten out a bit at the beach.
We hit a rough patch from Wednesday the 8th to Thursday the 9th with onshore winds ruining decent sized swell. Skip it.
Friday the 10th bounces back. A clean 5ft SSW swell with glassy conditions in the morning. This is a top pick for the first week. Saturday the 11th is a dawn patrol special with a clean 3ft S swell and glassy offshore wind, but a short period.
From Sunday the 12th to Tuesday the 14th, it’s back to small and choppy. Not worth it.
Now, Wednesday the 15th. That’s the big one. A powerful 8ft SSE groundswell with a 12-second period and morning offshore wind. The energy is very strong. This is big, clean, and powerful – strictly for experts. The afternoon stays clean and drops to 8ft.
Thursday the 16th is equally epic. A 7ft SSE swell in the morning, building to 6ft with a longer 13-second period in the afternoon. Clean cross-offshore winds. If you miss the 15th, this is your second chance. It’s a long-range call, so keep an eye on it, but it looks promising.
Water temp is around 73°F, which is about normal for this time of year.
Jaconé is a consistent spot that’s exposed to the S and SE swells. Our biggest standouts on the 15th and 16th are from the SSE, which is close to the optimum direction. Crowds can show up here sometimes, but the bigger size should thin ’em out.
So, to wrap it up: First few days are forgettable. Monday the 6th morning is your first good session with glassy 6ft surf. Wednesday the 15th and Thursday the 16th are the dream days for experienced surfers – big, clean, powerful.
Rusty.

Information about the Jaconé Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Jaconé provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Jaconé can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Jaconé surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Jaconé) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Jaconé may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Jacone is 14 km (9 miles) from the city of Saquarema. If you plan a holiday in Rio de Janeiro, look for hotels and other accommodation in Saquarema. Saquarema has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
